BD, I dont have an answer for that one. Not sure I want an answer. I know what the legallities of moving large amounts of cash are but not why its a concern.
The issue of large amounts of cash and TSA getting involved really bother me. It is not a function of TSA to monitor movement of cash or cash instruments.
For those who are carrying large amounts of these items the point of declaration is often after a person has cleared security.
Seems to me a total waste of manpower for TSA to spend one second on asking about cash but heck what is new there?
When you work for an incompetent agency you get incompetent screening.
